There Is Still a Long Road Ahead Before Elias Can Win Amanda’s Heart
Elias ignored her and followed Amanda.
Grace’s heart dropped when she saw Elias ignoring her. Do I really not stand a chance?
Jennifer looked at Grace suspiciously, still thinking about what Amanda had said.
“Why are you looking at me like that? Do you believe her too?” Tears fell from the corner of Grace’s
eyes as she spoke.
“Impossible.” Jennifer quickly denied it. “You’re the only one I trust, Grace. I believe that you are the
one who truly loves Elias. I will never believe that poor woman’s words.”
Hearing her words, Grace hugged Jennifer as she cried helplessly. “I love Elias so much, Mrs. Winters.
I would never do anything to hurt him.”
Amanda sat in the backseat with Aiden while Elias drove the car. On their way home, none of them
said anything, seemingly as if they were afraid of disturbing Aiden’s slumber.
Still, Amanda couldn’t help but ask, “You refused to listen to me when I told you that Grace was behind
the accident. You even slapped me. Yet, why are you so calm now? Why didn’t you say anything?” She
wondered if Elias truly believed her.
Elias looked at her through the rear mirror and said, “Although I don’t have solid evidence, Grace can’t
be trusted either.”
Hearing his words, Amanda didn’t know what to say.
The duo stayed quiet as they drove back to Galaxy Bay. When they arrived, Elias exited the car and
opened the door for Amanda. Then, he carried Aiden from Amanda’s arms. In that split second,
Amanda thought as if they were still married; it was as if they had a happy life and a cute child.
Elias carried Aiden to the bedroom upstairs and put him to bed, covering the little one with a blanket
before leaving the room.
Downstairs, Amanda had brewed him a cup of tea.
Elias sat on the couch and asked, “When will you be moving out? I have already prepared a new place
for you. You can pay as much rent as you want. I don’t mind.” After all, he didn’t need the money, nor
did he need it for a living. However, he knew Amanda wouldn’t leave if he gave her the place for free.
Amanda thought momentarily before saying. “In another two days, perhaps. I need to be at the court
tomorrow, and I have a party to attend. Also, I need you to help take care of Aiden tomorrow.”
“You don’t have to ask. Aiden is also my son. It is my responsibility to take care of him,” Elias replied in
a low voice. Although he also had to be at a party tomorrow, he wouldn’t mind taking Aiden with him.
After all, he didn’t want to miss any more time with Aiden when he had already lost four years with his
son.
Amanda said nothing more.
“I’ll ask someone to help you with your stuff when you move,” said Elias.
There Is Still a Long Road Ahead Before Elias Can Win
“It’s fine. There’s nothing much to take since I only have a suitcase with me.”
“I see… I’ll be leaving, then.” Elias stood up and acted as if he was about to leave.
Amanda stood up with him and said, “I’ll walk you to the door.”
Looking at her, Elias said nothing. How heartless of her. I’m worried about her and Aiden, yet she
doesn’t seem to want me to stay.
Elias walked to the entrance and turned to look at Amanda. “Will you and the kid be safe tonight?
Should I accompany you two?” he asked.
“You think too much. We are safer if there are only two of us. Hurry up and leave. Thank you for taking
care of Aiden. Goodbye.” Amanda opened the door and gestured for him to leave.
Elias had a grim expression as he turned and exited.
With a loud bang, the door was closed shut.
Looking at the closed door, Elias was upset. It seems like Amanda still isn’t giving me a second
chance. How will I be able to get back with her if she refuses to let me be near her? As he thought
about it, he felt that he still had a long way to go before being able to win Amanda’s heart.
The next day, since Elias had a party to attend, he brought Aiden to have dinner before taking him to
the
party.
“Stay here with Mr. Mills. I’ll be back real quick. We’ll play with your cars at home after this, okay?”
Elias decided to leave after being there for mere formality since tonight’s organizer was his friend.
“Okay. Be back soon, Mr. Winters.” Aiden nodded his head.
Elias ruffled his head and smiled at him adoringly. However, when he raised his head and looked at
Yacob, his expression had turned cold.
Looking at his expression, Yacob couldn’t help but mumble inwardly that Elias was quick to change his
mood. After all, he looked at Aiden affectionately while looking at others as if they were his nemesis.
“You can take him around. However, do not let him leave your side even for a second. Call me if
anything happens.”
“Understood.”
Elias looked at A
one last time before entering the party. He felt assured since Aiden was with Yacob.
Initially, Amanda didn’t want to join the party tonight. However, one of her clients had organized it, so it
would be inappropriate for her to be absent. However, she never thought she would encounter Simon’s
mother.
It can’t be such a coincidence, can it? Amanda thought as she quickly turned around. She knew it
would be awkward if she went to greet Isabelle, but the latter had already seen her. Thus, she didn’t
know what to
do
Just as she was thinking about how to leave, her client approached her with a smile. There you are,
Miss Bailey. I have been looking for you. I thought you wouldn’t be here.”
“Mrs. Anderson, Amanda greeted with a smile.
She had helped Mrs. Anderson, also known as Donia Reese, to win a massive sum after the divorce.
Thus, Donia treated her as a benefactor and wanted to befriend her.
At this moment, Isabelle was approaching their way, seemingly as if she had seen Amanda,
“I was just going to look for you, Mrs. Nicholson. I must say, your son’s law firm has a wonderful
lawyer.. She helped me win my court case. Say, isn’t Simon single? Miss Bailey is single too. Why not
think of getting them together?”
Isabelle’s expression changed drastically upon hearing Donia’s words. After all, she wanted to separate
them, yet Donia was trying to hook them up.
Just as Amanda was about to say something, Isabelle beat her to it. “Although Miss Bailey is indeed an
outstanding woman, I don’t think she is suitable for my son. Plus, it would be troublesome if they work
together while dating”
“What’s wrong with that? After all, first come, first serve.” Donia smiled.
Seeing that she couldn’t refuse Donia’s proposal, Isabelle said, “Don’t you know? Miss Bailey is
divorced and has a son. I don’t think her child would be happy if Simon becomes his stepdad.”
